My Doctor Told Me to Do High Profile 350 CC Silicone, Will That Give me Natural Looking Results?

Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. 

You said that you are 5 ft, 106 lb with a BWD of 11.5 cm. This means that you are petite. The diameter of a 350 cc high profile gel implant is 11.7cm. High profile is about the only way to get a sizeable implant on your frame.

You said that you want a natural look but you don't want to be small.  To be completely honest, your statement is a contradiction in terms.  Women who are 5 ft, 106 lb do not "naturally" have really large breasts. If you went with the same implant diameter in a moderate plus projection, then the volume would be 275 cc at 11.7 cm in diameter. This would give you a more natural look, but it is a significantly smaller implant than the 350 cc.

So, you have to decide whether you want to go with a large high profile implant or go for a more natural look. Another option would be to go with 325 cc High Profile implant with a BWD of 11.4 cm but again, if you are concerned about size then this might not be as big as you want.

To finalize your decision, discuss this with your plastic surgeon.  I hope this helps.

I use a technique called dimensional breast augmentation which involves taking in a number of factors and measurements, so each patient is unique. That being said, given your height, weight, and your activity level, along with the fact you are considering a lift, I would say you are probably not that far off in choosing an implant in that range. Best thing to do is to see a qualified plastic surgeon that has good breast expertise.Two different sized implants can be placed to achieve better asymmetry, and an implant with a more narrow base width may help address any sagging you may have.

Hello,

Virtually anything high profile will not look natural. The bigger the implant or the smaller the breast, the more 'augmented' you will look as well.  You are going to have to come to terms with the limitations of breast augmentation, and that you can't necessarily have it both ways.

More importantly, you are probably not a good candidate for a 350cc implant because of your breast diameter and thin tissues. A physical exam would be helpful, but I would guess closer to 275, possibly 300 intermediate profile (moderate plus with Mentor, style 15 with Natrelle).  My guestimate is based on objective measurements you described and not your aesthetic goal; a true physical exam would allow real measurements of your anatomy to detemine the best implant. Utilizing an objective, reproducible system to determine implant size and profile will lower your risk of a complication that leads to re-operation from 25% to 3%.

You are asking for help, and we are giving it.  Will you take it?

Best of luck!

A high profile implant doesn't give a "natural" look.  It gives a push-up bra type of look, with fullness and roundness up top.  If you like this look, then by all means, use a HP implant.

However, I suspect that, given your measurements, this HP implant will look somewhat obviously surgical, and not "natural".  You might want to re-size.

 

All the best!

Thank
you for the question. As I stress with my patients, the choice of implant
size and type would best be done through an in-person examination. There
are a lot of factors that can affect your choice like the desired end result,
breast tissue, body measurements, and the like. Bra sizes can be better
determined once all of these information have been gathered. It would
always be best to visit your board-certified plastic surgeon and get a full
evaluation for your concerns. Best of luck, Dr. Michael Omidi.

An
in-person exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess
your needs and provide true medical advice.
